I'm currently Running [ROM][gginggerbread-6] - Wimax for cm7 and when using Apps2SD Pro some apps that are available to be moved to SD move, but then they are others which give me a error saying "Failed to move application. There is not enough storage left" I have a total of 2 gigs of free space on my SD card, is anyone else getting this issue?

I'm trying to install an app (around 5mb) but I get the 'out of space' error. However, the SD/Phone card storage says the my phone has 97mb free.
Has anyone else had this issue? Is there any way to fix this?
I tried installing a different app, same problem.
the SD/Phone Card storage is different to where apps are stored, which is on the internal memory. If your running Froyo or even better a custom rom with A2SD+ then you can move some of the apps to your SD card instead and free up some of that internal memory.
Yeah, I'm on a custom rom pinky
I know I could install to SD, but was just wondering why, with 90mb free, it wasn't letting me install to the phone.
thanks for the help
i have had the out of memory error, found that rebooting frees up some memory
i use a widget called mini info, atm i have 29MB free, reboot the phone and i now have 35MB free i have found that if i reboot after installing programs browsing web and market place i don't see the out of memory error.
Though it could be that you just have to many apps installed *
I'm running Speedy Port vB4 by Leoisright - 2.3.3
When I try to move an application to SD I frequently get the error "Failed to Move Application. There is not enough storage left."
My 16GB SD card shows having 7GB of memory left though.
Appreciate any help you can offer.

I have a rooted Incredible with CM7 installed, and I'm having some trouble with the memory.
I have an 8 GB SD card and am currently using about 4 GB of it for backups, music, etc. However, when reading the system data on the phone, it doesnt even use one percent of the internal memory, and I keep getting a low space notification for installing apps.
Is there a way I can partition the internal memory to allocate more space for installing apps?
I don't think you can repartition internal memory, anyone feel free to jump in if I am wrong. Might want to check out S2E in the market, just have to partition your sd card w/ an ext partition & your phone sees it as an extension of your internal memory. Only works w/ CM7 btw.
Course, this doesn't fix the fact that you are showing only 1% usage & can't install anything... what numbers you get in settings when you look at installed apps? Amt used, amt available...

I'm using Link2SD and even though there are Gigabytes of free space, I can't move a 6MB app from the SD card to the SD card's second partition because of apparently lack of free space:
"pkg: /mnt/asec/appnamehere/pkg.apk Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE]"
The internal memory has about 50MB free, SD card has 7GB free and the second partition has 800MB free..
In fact, I can't move any apps to or from the SD card or internal memory either. However, I can unlink apps back to the internal memory without issues.
I'm using ICS for HTC Desire 0.5.1, default HBoot, Clockworkmod Recovery Touch 5.8.0.2, aGPS and default homescreen with no scripts.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks.
Did you try to restart your device? Do the same process again...

Some apps look for percentage available instead of MB available or some nonsense.
Could also be that it needs to install some secured data, and that's going into a place you don't have enough space.
Also, if you had an app installed on external memory at some point, and you try to reinstall it, you'll get that error. Check your Application Manager for any apps that have the memory card icon on them. Those can cause problems.
Personally, I use Link2SD Plus, which requires an SD card. This allows you to move whole applications to a second partition of the SD card. Works well with the tab 3, and leaves me with lots of free space.
I'm assuming when you say ROM space free, you mean System partition space free? I only have about 9MB free on mine and it causes no problems.
Have had this issue on my phone before because the ROM itself locked the device as read-only, causing any app to give that error, and had to flash it again.
I had a bunch of unknown junk cluttering my user/data partition (they're the same physical area on the device), and had to wipe the "internal storage" and "data" from a custom recovery after backing up my data I cared about.
Hopefully this is informative, and hopefully someone else can be more helpful
Good luck to you

i dont know what it says but i think it means read-only memory, and my tablet has no recovery mode it only shows "downloading mode"
I don't know if this is a permanent solution but I noticed that I had no "OBB" file in "Android " on my "extsdcard". I created said file and moved all files from "OBB", "sdcard0" to new OBB file. I then started a program who's file I moved to new OBB and immediately closed. Then went back to original OBB to delete newly created file (double) for that app. Now all my apps download straight to extsdcard in the new OBB file. I can also move apps to SD card from app manager .
Let me know if it worked for you.
